In reply to Paxil should be illegal / It causes brain damage, posted by AVR on August 23, 2001, at 21:14:39
AVR, How quickly did you withdraw from it? What you describe sounds like what I've been told are symptoms for sudden discontinuance of the short-acting SSRI's (Paxil and Luvox).

> This stupid legal drug has given me more brain damage than any illegal drug out there. I've tried acid, hash and other street drugs and my brain would be back to normal within hours but this stupid Paxil which I took for 2 years for my depression/anxiety&panic/ocd has left me with flutters in my head, continuos cracking sounds when I walk and many more problems. I have been without Paxil now for a month. I sure hope these damages are short term and that my brain can re-write itself. This brain damaging drug should be illegal. I don't even think acid, ecstasy or even crack could do the damage that paxil can do to the brain.
